5-רגל-9, 27-year-old Prograis, originally from New Orleans, ., but currently residing in Houston, טקסס, is an aggressive-minded southpaw who’s making his 2016 debut and third start on ShoBox. Before turning pro in April 2012 he competed in the 2012 United States Olympic Boxing Trials.

 

בו ShoBox debut on Aug, 17, 2015, he registered an impressive,eight-round decision over previously undefeated עמוס Cowart.תוכניות, who had won eight straight by knockout going into the Cowart clash, resumed his KO-winning streak with a ninth-round knockout over הבל ראמוס אחרון דצמבר. 11 על ההצגה מתחילה.

 

“I can’t wait to fight on March 25. I’m ready to put on another great show for the fans and demonstrate how I continue to improve as a fighter,"אמר Prograis, מי שהיה 16 when he turned to boxing after relocating to Houston because of Hurricane Katrina. “I know I have a tough opponent, but I’m ready to go out and perform.

“Aaron Herrera is a rugged veteran and I know there will be some fireworks. I am thankful to my promoter, DiBella בידור, and to the network, ההצגה מתחילה, for the opportunity to display my skills and talent.”

 

לגבי הכינוי שלו, Prograis said, “My manager and my dad were just trying to come up with nicknames. בעיקרון, everybody was just shooting out names and they shot out that one – ‘Rougarou’. בתחילה, I didn’t like it, but it stuck with me. A rougarou is like a Louisiana-type swamp monster or werewolf.”

 

הררה, 27, of Valladolid, מקסיקו, זוכת 16 in a row at the outset of a pro career that began in August 2008, has fought some noteworthy opposition. This will be his second fight in U.S. קרקע. In his stateside debut, Herrera dropped a 10-round decision to undefeated prospect Pedro Campa אחרון דצמבר. 12.

 

Besides experience, Herrera has solid skills, movement and hails from a strong family boxing background (his father and grandfather boxed). He’s at his best when he keeps his foes off-balance and can surely outbox them. This will be the 17ה consecutive time he’ll be matched against a boxer with a winning record.

 

“I’m very excited at the opportunity to showcase my talent on theShoBox series,’’ Herrera said. “I’ve watched a few fights of Regis on YouTube. הוא לוחם טוב, but I am a better one. I feel fighting in Mexico has given me the upper hand. Mexican fighters are tough. I have fought better opposition and I’m the more experienced fighter.

 

“I’ve been looking for an opportunity like this. I need a good breakout fight for the fans to see me in action. I am a proud Mexican fighter and on March 25 the fans will see how real Mexicans fight like, and Prograis will know who Aaron Herrera is. Viva Mexico!"

 

The highly regarded Baranchyk is making his second eight-round start and second in a row on ShoBox. An offensive-minded fighting machine, he registered a 2:28, נוקאאוט בסיבוב הראשון על שאדי שחאדה בתחילתו האחרונה אחרון דצמבר. 11 ב ShoBox.

 

Baranchyk, of Minsk, Byelorussia, is a former European amateur standout who turned pro in June 2014 and relocated to the United States just a few months after. 5-רגל-7, 23-year-old has won all eight of his U.S. טיולים, seven by way of knockout, five in the first round.

 

“I am thrilled to make my second consecutive appearance on ShoBox,"Baranchyk מקנזי. “I know that my next opponent will be a test for me, but I will score another exciting victory for the fans.’’

 

יריבו, Givhan, turned pro in August 2012, won his first 15 scraps, boxed a four-round split draw with Freddy Durand ב- Aug. 22, 2015, and is coming from a majority decision over חואן סנטיאגו אחרוןנובמבר. 13.

5-רגל-7, 29-year-old fought 14 times in Michigan and one time each in West Virginia, Mississippi and Kentucky. The ultra-confident Givhan is taking a step up in class in Baranchyk, but he’s certainly not in awe of his assignment and is eagerly anticipating the opportunity.

 

“I am getting my mind ready for war,’’ said Givhan, whose nickname, “King Beamen,” is a reference to Jamie Foxx’s character from the movie “Any Given יום ראשון."

 

“Training is going great both mentally and physically. I belong on theShoBox series because they showcase great talent and, false modesty aside, I have great boxing talent. I will feel at home fighting on SHOWTIME and I take this as a great honor to fight on their network.

 

“My opponent has not fought anyone of my caliber. I know he’s been talking trash, but it won’t matter in the end. He has not had an opponent who can outthink, outshine and outbox him. I am that guy, I am that fighter. The cliché is true: to be the best you’ve got to fight and beat the best. We are both undefeated and this is the kind of a fight that separates the good fighters from the great ones.’’

 

גולוב, a six-foot, 27 year-old southpaw, turned pro in November 2012. At the outset of his career, הוא הלך 5-0 in the WSOB. He’s gone 10-0 מאז, winning eight by knockout, including his last four in a row. Golub has recorded five first-round stoppages, including a two-knockdown,2:41, opening-round TKO over חואן רודריגז in his most recent effort last יאן. 16 ברקליס המרכז.

 

“It is an honor for me to make my national television debut,” Golub said. “Many champions got their start on ShoBox and I am determined to add my name to that illustrious list. My path toward a world title begins onמרץ 25 when I hand Marlon Aguas his first defeat.”

 

Aguas is making his U.S. ו 2016 debut after fighting seven times in Quito, Ecuador and twice in Mexico. A pro since March 2013, he won his initial eight starts and is coming off a first-round knockout over Edwin Gamboa אחרון נובמבר. 7.
